I believe his final Jeopardy episode was just aired on Friday. According to IMDB, he hosted the show for 8173 episodes.

Dietrich appeared in multiple Chiffon spots throughout the decade as a vengeful Mother Nature who was duped by a product she believed to be butter. The clips ended with Dietrich delivering the line, “It’s not nice to fool Mother Nature.” |
You might also remember her as Gloria on The Golden Girls
